They should use this loco as a DVT top and tail with a live Deltic!
-
@philquine If it was truly female, it would whine and break down regularly
-
When i used to design medium speed diesel engines, they had a model of one of these in the reception area, and a bust of Robert Stephenson. I think they made some Deltic locomotives in the place too. "Vulcan Works" in Newton-le-Willows. Of course its been demolished and forgotten. That's how good Deltic's were.

if only his majesty was live :/

And why was she put back into service?
triumph6able: Actually, trains are always referred to as female even Flying Scotsman.
-
@666fannyfart No, that diesel train is more like a Tyrannosaurus Rex or Velociraptor than a monster.
-
that deltic dp1 failed on the way to leeds going past coply hill it overrevved its engines but glad to see its been repaired
-
I remember watching this superb loco at Doncaster before it entered service, it was a WOW with all the spotters.

Sorry guys but DELTIC has always been known as the King of diesels,so please stop calling him "her" and "she",let's have a bit bit of respect here,we are not worthy.

@triumph6able - No, I think you will find it was the Queen of Diesels, everyone knows that. Give me the name of a king that was beautiful.

it is impossible for any sounds to come from this locomotive as the pistons and crankshafts were removed by english electric in 1963 when it was presented to the science museum in kensington,if you want to hear what it realy sounds like see the shot of the protype deltic in my deleted dvd the deltic locomotives of british railways

The Ultimate Deltics 1, 2 & 3!!! Hello! :-) Actually the video was not dubbed, but is the sound from Alycidon, which is propelling the loco. It has fooled quite a few people even though I mention this in the information. Cheers!
